    [Nine Uncle doesn't take a master + unorthodox sorcerer + Under One Person + player panel + establish a lineage later + no harem, can't write romance, so I won't write it] In the Dharma-ending Age, heaven and earth are cut off. This is the story of Liu Qing awakening from a dream, realizing himself, and cultivating immortality in this chaotic and turbid world... [The first year was relatively normal. After gaining experience and obtaining cultivation techniques from Nine Uncle, I immediately began a monster-sweeping mode centered on Renjia Town. However, I accidentally injured Si Mu, who came to rest, and thus began my journey across the land.] [The second year, I had my first enlightenment. Unorthodox paths are not so unchanging. Souls are thrown into the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, blood is absorbed into the Blood Refining Pool, corpses are stuffed into the Corpse-Nourishing Coffin, and bones are piled up in the White Bone Mountain. The hatred and resentment towards me are used to refine magic weapons. I'm really a master of thrift!] [Year 3, far away from home, this fellow Daoist... Living quite well, I see you're unable to break through due to incomplete mental state, but I have two treasure lands where you can cleanse your mind and temper your soul. Invest five and a half spirit stones, and I'll reserve a seat for you at the Soul-Swept White Bone Mountain and the Blood Refining Mountain.] [Year 4, arriving in a foreign server, in ancient China there were ghosts, humanoid in form, with red eyes and fangs, nocturnal and fond of feeding on human blood... Eating them prolongs life. Liu Qing looked at the little green-haired, golden-eyed loli grinning at him in his hand, wondering if refining this into a Blood Pill would truly have a life-extending effect.] [Year 5, is there really a God? You are God!] [Year 6, "God is sick, I must strive harder," "Why not ask Zeus if he possesses my thunder magic," "Please let Satan join my Human Emperor Banner as its master," "This poor Daoist Liu Qing, please let Odin die."]
